WHAT'S INCLUDED

WHAT TO EXPECT

1. Ile de la Cite
The city of Paris has spiraled out from Notre Dame over the centuries, so we think it’s only appropriate to start our group tour here. We’ll move towards the city’s oldest bridge and to its perfectly manicured flowerbeds at the Tuileries Gardens. Stand where heads rolled at the Place de la Concorde while learning about the world’s most beautiful avenue, the Champs Elysées. We’ll introduce you to the characters that built this city, including Henri IV, Louis XIV, and Napoleon Bonaparte, with stories you won’t find in the guidebooks. After a break for lunch, we’ll skip the lines at the Louvre to discuss the highlights and masterpieces that attract millions of visitors to the museum each year. After the tour you’ll be well versed in the museum’s history and secrets, and you’ll understand – well, almost – why thousands of people take selfies with the Mona Lisa. It’s the most famous museum in the world, and with good reason. From its roots as a fortress to its days as a royal residence, the Louvre has more secrets than any building in Paris could ever hold. This intimate semi-private tour seeks to captivate first timers as well as those who think they know it all as you visit statues like the armless Venus de Milo and the headless Winged Victory of Samothrace. Drool over the crowned jewels in the opulent Apollo Gallery and descend into the depths of the medieval moat beneath the museum. We’ll even discuss a few master painters like Michelangelo and Delacroix. From the smiling Mona Lisa to the 19th century masters, our passionate guides will show you what you need to see at the Louvre, as well as a few surprises not in the guidebooks.

We had a great time and learned a lot. Marc was a great tour guide! He was very knowledgeable and we truly enjoyed touring Île-de-la-cite, the Latin quarter and the louvre. We did not have to wait in line very long and we got to see the main attractions we were hoping to see in a short amount of time, which we could have never done without Marc!

First things first, Ivanna was an absolute gem! Her passion for art was contagious, and she beautifully wove together stories behind the artist's and their work. It wasn't just about the visual work; it was about the emotions, the history, and the cultural significance behind each piece.

We were captivated by the mystery and conspiracy behind the Mona Lisa and left speechless by the striking beauty of the Venus du Milo. Ivanna's storytelling brought to life the imposing grandeur of the Winged Victory of Samothrace as she told us all about the goddess Nike.

As the tour came to an end, I found myself reluctant to leave. The Louvre had cast its spell on me, leaving me with a newfound appreciation for art and a treasure trove of memories to cherish.

So, if you ever find yourself in Paris, do yourself a favor and embark on this tour of the Louvre. It's a much deeper experience than navigating it yourself!

This was by far the best tour we took in Paris. MARCEL was our guide, and we couldn’t have chosen a better person for the job. He had an abundance of knowledge, answered any question that was asked of him, and even made a detour on the city tour once I asked him his what his favorite Parisian street food was. Once inside the Louvre, he shared interesting facts about the history of the sculptures and paintings that he pointed out along the way. With the sheer size of the Louvre, it is a lot to try to take it all in. Marcel provided a comprehensive overview of the works inside the museum that didn’t feel like we were missing anything, but also not overwhelmed by the amount either. If I could, I would have Marcel give me every tour in Paris!

Our tour guide was Malaika and she was excellent! Very knowledgeable about both the city center and the Louvre, very open to questions and detailed in her explanations. We would highly recommend the tour and this specific guide. Also the skip the line was absolutely necessary unless you wanted to stand there for 2+ hours before getting in to the museum.

Had a lovely tour with Hugo and his charisma and excitement for the art was both entertaining and educational. It was a literal delight to go through the museum highlights with him and I would 100% have him give a tour on anything in the city.
